Newtons Nook Designs - Shark Week


Hello everyone!! It's my favorite time of summer... Shark Week!  Over at Newtons Nook Designs we have been celebrating all WEEK long!  For this week, NND released a matching Die set for the "Shark Bites" stamps. You can get them now in the Newtons Nook Designs Store.

I decided to use the new dies and create a seamless shaker card. At least thats what I am calling it.  I created my background with some Distress Sprays and water.  I die cut the silhouette shark and glued him to the back ground. Then I cut up a plastic page protector to encase my shaker goodies.  Then I colored up the main shark and stamped the sentiment right on the plastic with some Staz On Ink very carefully.  

Quick Tip: Use Staz On ink for slick surfaces and plastics.  Just stamp straight down and life straight up. Don't wiggle or you will get smearing.

Newtons Nook Designs Inky Paws Challenge #33 - Ombre




It's that time again for another Inky Paws Challenge from Newtons Nook Designs!  This time it's an Ombre challenge. Since, Shark Week is coming up and I live so close to the Shark Bite Capital of the US (New Smyrna Beach, FL).  Your welcome for a fun fact, lol.  I decided to play with the "Shark Bites" stamp set.  I picked 3 blue inks to create the Ombre effect.  When I transitioned to the next color I stamped half my shark in one color and the next for a gradient. 


I then stamped the main shark on some vellum and placed him on top so you can still see the Ombre effect.  To top the card off I added some twine, washi tape and sequins.  I hope you enjoyed my card and decided to play along

 I created my own background paper for this card just by randomly stamping the image.

Newtons Nook Designs June Release - Day 3

Welcome to day 3 of the June Release for Newtons Nook Designs.  Today, we are featuring  "Vegetable Garden" stamp set.  This set is great for recipe cards and gifts! For this card I did some messy watercoloring. I stamped the carrots with Archival Ink. Then playfully watercolored them, not staying in the lines is the best part! lol.

Newtons Nook Designs June Release - Day 2

Welcome to day 2 of the June Release from Newtons Nook Designs. Today, we are show casing the "Flower Garden" stamp set.  For this card I used the stamp block technique for my background. I put watercolor all over my acrylic stamp block and smoothed it onto the water color paper and let is sit for 20-30 sec to allow the paper to soak in the color.  You get this beautiful watercolored image to use as a backdrop for your focal image.  It's easy and looks great.

I then stamped the sentiment and sunflower after it was dry added a complementing color background , some twine and sequins.

I kept the card a bit old school simple. I also decided I need to use some of my patterned paper that i've been hoarding. Some simple patterns make for a great card.  I topped it off with some ribbon from my stash. Does anyone use ribbon anymore?? lol

Adventure is Waiting Masculine Card



Happy Thursday everyone! Today, I created a masculine card with Newton's Nook Designs May Release. The Splendid Stags Die and Adventure Awaits stamp set make for a purr-rect masculine themed card.

Just some simple shapes and embossing can create a dynamic card when you are in a pinch. I finished the card off by popping up the stag on pop dots and using some brown enamel dots.
